10 Most Creative Guns In Video Games

1. Portal Gun - Portal

Arguably the most beloved gun of all time, and we've never once killed anyone with it. The gun from Portal 1 and 2 – or, to give it it's full title, The Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device – is the primary device Chell uses to navigate the various Test Chambers she is tasked against while trying to overcome the deranged GLaDOS Artificial Intelligence that has killed all over Aperture employees.

Through it's unique mechanic of creating a connecting doorway between two different spatial points, no matter their location or orientation, Portal and it's iconic gun introduced to a new type of puzzle game – one where we didn't have to shoot enemies, push boxes or flip switches, but break our minds by turning physics on its head.

Whether you're creating portals so that security turrets will shoot themselves, or gathering speed by creating an endless loop to fall through, each Test Room of Portal and it's sequel presented a new and unique challenge, meaning not only was the gun fun to use, but it never got boring.
